Why are there no Italian pros? I feel like I've seen a pro from nearly every European country except Italy.
I remember one dude, his nickname was fusion. He was playing EU FPLC mostly and some tier 999 mixes. He found a russian girl and went to meet her in moscow and there he died falling out of the window

Ye
I suggested to one guy from hltv to play faceit, but every time when I wrote to him he answered: "I'm having lunch... I have lunch... I'm sorry, it's time for me to have dinner" and all that.
We were only able to play on the third day.
No joke. Ask @w0rld he can confirm

Lans were ban in italy and since than there is no interest in pro scene in italy
2 replies
I remember an user here saying that back in the day the italian government banned lanhouses, so they have no scene cuz no lanhouses
i think it makes sense, because counter strike/fps games are only huge in brazil because of the lanhouse era

They have better things to do aside from playing one game 24/7 to have 1 in a thousand chance of reaching some level of decency in pro scene

When Minecraft, is more sold on switch rather on PC, it shows how much PC gaming is not popular omg
1 reply
Yeah, console gaming is far more popular there. There are quite a few Italian tekken pros though but that's more from console gaming.

Vengeurr is insane and there are italian tekken pros as well

Yes he is, but Stermy did more for esport in general. Promoting it and all that. Being a role model. It was basically Stermys friends who invented faceit for example.
Thinking of it, given that Stermy exists it's even more odd that there are no other Italian pros. Maybe because he played niche games. If Stermy played CS he would be like the Italian Fallen.

He's the co-founder of FACEIT
Italia too busy cookin the best food ever I guess
They cooka da meatball and can’t find time for cs
its not in their culture
It's impossible for us to focus on videogames, i mean, it's always like 23/24° average so it's really hot to stay 7-8-9 hours sitted in front of a monitor especially during the summer.
We usually have aperitif in the afternoon (especially in seaside cities) except in january and february, we love driving motorbikes and going out for dinner (we don't like to eat at home or just ordering food by just eat etc..).
We really care about the family so we often go to visit our grandparents or uncles and aunts or cousins.
For us football is like a religion so we spend a lot of time watching football games and talking about them with friends.

Console country (like UK)

UK has worse weather and a slightly larger population so I guess that would make sense. Even though the UK is more of a console country than PC the weather is pretty crap a lot of the time so people would tend to stay indoors more than Italians.

ik it sucks
We earn a lot but we work illegally, i take 1200€/month + 1200€ undeclared, that's how it works in italy xD

You are lovely people, lovely culture overall and every time I visit Italy I have an amazing time. Was there over this past weekend. Had a blast.
But. Your streets smell like shit, it's dirty everywhere and your authorities feel corrupted. Maybe if you and your brothers would declare all illegal work there could be a sizeble contribution to society from the people.
But then again maybe I'm socialist brainwashed.

Cannot try to change something which is rooted in our dna, i mean if I declared the work undeclared, I would automatically not find work any more..

But the other side of the coin is that i really enjoy my life, i live in naples and with my boat i go to capri every weekend and it's amazing, I finish to work at 5 pm and i can enjoy my free time especially during the summer season going to sea or just going in some beach bar.
I really enjoy going around the Amalfi coast on my motorbike (u can search some video on youtube)
Probably italy (especially the south) is not the best in terms of infrastructure but if u were born here you wouldn't be able to leave

When will the golden age of Italian CS start?
pc gaming not popular there, its just consoles with fifa+cod mostly
italian chads too busy drinking wine and having sex
Same thread every 6 months...
Tldr: okayish women, amazing food, nice weather, shit and pricey internet
Better things to do in Italy I suppose.
With all the art and the fantastic historic architecture it would make sense if they focus more on that, plus there is also pizza and pasta.
same question where is moldovans
also no portugueses
